Practical Magic 2 (original version with Italian subtitles)
Regia: Susanne Bier
Cast: Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman, Joey King, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña
The Owens family has been a line of witches for generations, bound by an ancient curse that condemns its women to never fully experience love. Twenty-five years after the events of the first film, the family finds itself once again having to come to terms with the past, when a discovery about the origins of their magic brings to light dark secrets that have remained hidden for centuries. Sisters Gillian and Sally Owens (Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman), together with their aunts, must unite once more to face the threat looming over the family. Complicating matters is Kylie (Joey King), Sally’s daughter, who begins to display increasingly unsettling powers and, in her quest to uncover the truth about her origins, ends up awakening dark forces linked to the history of their lineage. To break the curse once and for all, the Owens women must venture beyond the confines of their home in Massachusetts and travel all the way to the UK in search of the source of their magic. Amidst family secrets, ancestral powers and sacrifices, three generations of witches will be forced to fight together to finally give the next generation the chance to choose their own destiny.

The restaurant
Caffè Odeon, a place to nourish mind and body
Open daily: 11:30 AM - 12:00 AM
Caffè Odeon in Florence was born from the encounter with the Giunti publishing house, and from the project to give new life to the historic Odeon cinema, transforming it into a multifunctional cultural center.
The idea is simple and ambitious: to create a space open all day, like the great Mitteleuropean cafés, where you can enjoy dishes from different gastronomic traditions, a varied pastry selection, a carefully curated coffee service, as well as wines, cocktails and non-alcoholic beverages.
Eating, drinking a coffee or a good glass of wine have much in common with reading a book or watching a film: they are different ways of experiencing stories, through the senses. It is this connection that makes our dream a reality.
A place of history and beauty
Since 1922, the most beautiful films, the most distinguished guests, and the most remarkable events have taken the stage at the magnificent cinema-theatre in Piazza Strozzi, Florence. Come visit us.
Odeon, a century of cinema and culture.
A book filled with images, documents, stories, and curiosities retraces the history of one of Florence's most iconic places, from its origins to the present day. Discover more.
